Makes four 1-cup servings

The broiler is an unsung kitchen hero because it imparts a flavorful char in half the time that grilling takes. In this 20-minute recipe, kale, broccoli, and chickpeas crisp under the broiler while the pasta water boils. Make sure to spread out the vegetables and chickpeas so they have room to caramelize properly instead of steaming (the more crunchy bits, the better). Finish by tossing the pasta and vegetables with a quick sauce of butter, lemon zest and fresh ricotta, a rich and creamy complement to the charred vegetables. Enjoy with crusty bread, good wine, and a sense of accomplishment — you just got dinner on the table in under a half hour.

Ingredients:

12oz dried linguine or spaghetti

14oz can chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1 bunch broccoli or broccolini, trimmed

and cut into thin florets (about 1.5 pounds),

stems reserved for another use

2 large garlic cloves, thinly sliced

½ tsp red pepper flakes

⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more

for drizzling

Black pepper, to taste

1 bunch Tuscan kale, stemmed and cut into

bite-size pieces

1 lemon

2 tbsp unsalted butter

8oz ricotta, preferable room temp

Flaky sea salt, to taste

Instructions:

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Reserve ½ cup pasta cooking water and drain the pasta. Meanwhile, heat the broiler and set a rack roughly 8 inches from the heat source. In a large bowl, toss the broccoli, chickpeas, garlic, red pepper flakes, and ⅓ cup oil until evenly coated. Season with salt and black pepper. Spread out evenly on one sheet pan. Add the kale to the same bowl and toss to coat in any residual oil. Drizzle with more oil as needed and toss to coat evenly. Spread out in an even layer on a second sheet pan. Working with one sheet pan at a time, broil the broccoli and chickpeas, tossing halfway through cooking, until the chickpeas are toasty, and the broccoli is tender and charred, 5 to 7 minutes. Broil the kale until just charred and crisp, about 5 minutes. Zest the lemon, halve it, then cut 1 half into 4 wedges. Squeeze the juice from the lemon half over the roasted vegetables and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Return the pasta to the pot. Add 1/4 cup reserved pasta cooking water, ricotta, butter, and lemon zest. Toss until well combined. Add the roasted vegetables and toss, adding more pasta water as needed. Divide among four bowls. Season with flaky sea salt and black pepper and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing on top. Drizzle with more oil, if desired.

Is tomato good for kidney patients?

Most people with early-stage CKD or a kidney transplant do not have to limit tomatoes because of potassium. If your laboratory results show higher levels of potassium, your doctor or kidney dietitian may talk with you about how much to eat. Potassium can be a concern depending on the amount you eat.

kidney.org - Tomatoes | National Kidney Foundation

The amount of potassium you can have each day will depend on your stage of kidney disease or the type of dialysis you receive (see below).

CKD/Transplant

Hemodialysis (3 times/week)

Potassium can be a concern depending on the amount you eat. For example, 1 or 2 slices of raw tomato has a much smaller amount of potassium than a cup of cooked tomatoes.

Daily Home and Nocturnal Hemodialysis/Peritoneal Dialysis

These types of dialysis can remove more potassium, so you may need to eat more potassium rich foods. Tomatoes are a good way to add extra potassium to your diet and decrease the need to take an additional potassium pill.

Kidney Stones

Eating tomatoes will not have an effect on forming kidney stones.
